Jessie Boiselle was found dead in a ravine at the back of his house around 9 pm. Police said his brother, Dillon Boiselle, left the family’s home around 10 am on Tuesday and when he returned later in the afternoon found his younger brother had been mauled by their pit bull. Detectives said when they arrived at the scene, the dog, named “Damian,” which had attacked Jessie, attacked them. The officers shot and killed it. Two other dogs, not pit bulls, remained on the property up to late yesterday evening."
